Focusing on the interplay between Christianity and secular thought, this volume explores the significant influence of Christian arguments on modern English intellectual history. Cowling examines movements like Tractarianism and Ultramontanism alongside secular humanism, emphasizing their interconnectedness. The discussion extends to the roles of science and history, framing religion as a pervasive force in literature and the broader cultural landscape. The work highlights the intimate links between political, philosophical, literary, and religious ideas among English intellectual leaders.
